It is impossible to disprove that statement, since I am not familiar with
every compiler in the world.
But a moment's thought will show that it is unlikely to be true. if ...
else if ... else if statements are not nested if's. A chain of a million
of them is no more complex than a chain of two, and should provide no
more difficulty to any compiler.
